Art attack on Seymour’s Concrete Canvas

A wonderful project that will have long term benefits to the town of Seymour. Beautifying the extremely dirty and ugly underpass will create a wonderful site for tourists and give loxaks pride in their town.

A project that you bring pleasure to the eye.

Beautifying the heart of Seymour will be something that everyone will enjoy and be proud of. Let your friends know about this fabulous project and encourage them to vote!

This project would complement the Vietnam Memorial Walk, the Lighthorse park and contribute to further recognise Seymour's heritage and history. Great idea!

Great idea. Currently it is an eyesore to say the least and unpleasant to pedestrians and vehicles traveling through it.

It's a great idea to get this painted or a mural of something! Many people walk through that area, and its so depressing. Anyone on their way through Seymour to Yea, and the Murrindindi area or Mt Bulla etc, have to drive through it and how wonderful it would be if they could remember a beautiful and colorful art piece!

This could help brighten up an otherwise dull area of the Town. It is an opportunity to turn an eyesore into an attractive mural that we can be proud of.

It's a wonderful vision and will make such a huge impact on our town

It would be great to see what is an eye sore in our town to something that people comment about in a positive way. A great start to bringing our town up to the standard of many of the surrounding towns.

A great idea It would certainly brighten up the underpass

This is an urgent project that will help people feel good about their otherwise attractive Town . Self image is affected by our surrounds and the Seymour underpass is in a depressing state. Many visitors pass through this underpass and to convert it to an attractive focal point would encourage them to stop and spend money which helps the economy of Seymour

This would make something that is an eyesore to all local residents and visitors to our region into a focal point of interest. What a wonderful way to life the spirit and pride of those who live in Seymour.

Just what Seymour needs bring it on.

This will be a wonderful addition to the town

This is a much needed project a lot of the township of Seymour has been neglected and shabby, this would add an amazing feeling to our town.

I think this is an amazing idea! What a way to feature our wonderful town and make people really take a look and have another great talking point about "Seymour". Fingers crossed this project gets the funding needed to get this happening and we can all make a difference to the face of our community.

Great idea, would be a real feature for the town.

High profile position with local residents and visitors passing by making this area more attractive would be of great value

Long overdue can’t wait to see what is created

I would love for this tunnel to be painted in a beautiful mural of our local plants and wildlife in collaboration with one of Victoria's highly commissioned and professional street artists, such as Scottie Neoh (aka bonsai). As many locals know, Scottie was commissioned to paint the wattlebird on my shed next to our little cafe Hock the Ruby in Tallarook. This painting has become iconic and has made a landmark out of what was a dilapidated 100 year old shed. It references "Tallarook" being the indigenous term for "call of the wattle bird". At the time, the artist had been living in the Tallarook Ranges. His work is seen all around the country as far as Perth and as local as Bendigo. He often collaborates with local artists on projects. I think the unique plants, animals and geography of our region could be showcased in this work. It may also help to campaign the plight of the wildlife that is run over daily on our local roads. Not a day goes past that a wombat, echidna, phascogale, possum, koala, wallaby or kangaroo is not squashed on the road that this tunnel is on, the GV Hwy. Most of these are not fast moving animals it is simply that drivers are not looking out for them, looking carefully at the road in the dark. Soon there many be very few left.

First off hat's off to Bruce and James for inspiring interest in so many of us to vote for this project. Seymour and surrounds is a beautiful area just waiting to be discovered and there is a hint that this happening. With vision, enthusiasm and passion for our town we must get behind this project with gusto with and any other ideas that emerge. We want people who pass through our town to be impressed and for them to return to our area, this Project would certainly grab the attention of many. Creativity and vision is what Seymour is crying out for. So fingers crossed.

Great idea! Bring it on!

If I can assist with quoting to prep and undercoat for art work and put a anti graffiti coating over the top to preserve art work let me know

Love it. Can’t wait to see the finished product.

One of the better ideas for our town
